Well this one is not a new sports car but still i love this car :v
The
Lamborghini Murciélago is a two-door, two-seat sports car produced by Italian automaker Lamborghini between 2001
and 2010. Successor to the Diablo and flagship of the automaker's lineup, the Murciélago was introduced as a coupé
in 2001. The automaker's first new design in eleven years, the car was
also the brand's first new model under the ownership of German parent
company Audi, which is owned by Volkswagen. It was styled by Peruvian-born Belgian Luc Donckerwolke, Lamborghini's head of design from 1998 to 2005.
The Murciélago is an all-wheel drive, mid-engined
supersports car. With an angular design and an exceptionally low slung
body, the highest point of the roof is just under 4 feet above the
ground. One of the vehicle's most distinguishing features are its scissor doors. which lends to the extreme image. First-generation Murciélagos, produced between 2001 and 2006, were powered by a Lamborghini V12 that traces its roots back to the company's beginnings in the 1960s. The rear differential
is integrated to the engine itself, with a viscous coupling center
differential providing drive to the front wheels. Power is delivered
through a 6-speed manual transmission. The Murciélago suspension uses an
independent double-wishbone design, and bodywork features carbon fiber,
steel and aluminum parts. The rear spoiler and the active air intakes
integrated into the car's shoulders are electromechanically controlled,
deploying automatically only at high speeds in an effort to maximize
both aerodynamic and cooling efficiency.
The first generation cars were produced between 2001 and 2006, and
known simply as Murciélago, sometimes Murciélago VT. Their V12 engines
produced just under 580 PS (572 hp), and powered the car to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds
Subsequent versions incorporated an alphanumeric designation to the
name Murciélago, which indicated their engine configuration and output.
However, the original cars are never referred to as "LP 580s". A first
generation Murciélago Roadster was used in the 2005 movie
Batman Begins.
